The details of over 4.5 million customers have gone missing at the Bank of New York Mellon

The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation has admitted to misplacing the
details of 4.5 million customers, following the loss of a data tape earlier this
year.

The backup tape went missing on 27 February while being transported to an
off-site archive by a third-party vendor. The lost data includes the names,
birthdates and social security numbers of customers of the Bank of NY Mellon and
the People's United Bank in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
